Pros

If you need some new clothes, you get a pretty good discount, especially if working at Banana Republic.

Cons

The entire culture of Gap Inc. is one of denial. The product is never bad, it only matters how the employees perform. The management doesn't have many multi-level and useless stages, the workers on the line need to be more efficient. When Gap was revealed to have employed child labor (again), not one word was mentioned to the floor employees. In a mid-size gap store, almost 50% of the staff is a manager or lead of some kind, each at differing levels, and few do much "real" work. Days off are extremely hard to get, no matter the reason, and trying to move from a store to corporate position is unheard of. Loyalty is meaningless; one could show up early every shift every day for years, but they are given the same consequences for missing a shift as someone who calls out of work every other shift. Calling out is too easy, and as a result an excessive amount of "on-call" shifts are assigned to floor workers.
